A survey examining book readership in the United States as of February 2021 showed that 68 percent of 18-to-29-year-olds had read a print book in the last year. The share was slightly lower among older adults, though more than 50 percent of respondents in each age group reported having read at least one printed book in the 12 months leading to the survey.
